Market News

We are working very hard to make Rose Creek Farms Cooperative the most convenient way for you to put locally grown food on your tables. It’s amazing what transpires each week in such a limited space and time window.

We accept credit cards!

The above pictures are from the Rose Creek Farms Childrens Event called “Chicken Run” held on April 24th, 2013. Kids had a great time learning about our fowl friends.

• Summer veggies are going strong now! We have been producing lots of green beans for folks to eat but also for the summer canning and/or freezing.

• Chickens are almost here. We hate that we ran out of stock but we are gearing up and hopefully that won’t happen again any time soon.

Please share our coop with friends and family, the farmers have lots of precious vegetables and meats to sell. If you want …. “Like us” on facebook because we try to post pictures and interesting things that go on at the farm there.

Remember: We do give you money back on the undamaged glass jelly jars and rings. We can refund you $0.50 cents each for those that are returned back in great shape.

Remember: We do take used egg cartons that are still in good shape. It helps with the environment and help us keep the cost down.

Thanks so much for your support of Rose Creek Farms Locally Grown, all of our growers, local food, and our rights to eat it. You all are part of what makes North Texas such a great area in which to live.
